| April 2025 | Tornado (EF1) | Libertyville | $200,000 | This first tornado to impact central Indiana began in Illinois where it reached EF2 intensity and tracked nearly 45 miles before entering Vigo County, Indiana for the final portion of its track. The circulation tracked east-northeast to New Goshen Avenue, then curled right to an easterly direction taking it into the center of the New Goshen community where the greatest damage occurred. Damage along the east-northeasterly track consistent with EF0 intensity, to the northwest of the West New Goshen community, included downed trees, minor structure and/or roof damage and an collapsed old barn. Damage in New Goshen consistent with high end EF1 intensity included major damage to a large garage with full walls picked up and thrown over other structures, and near-total roof loss to many other structures in the community. The tornado weakened to EF0 intensity as it crossed US Highway 150 and lifted shortly after. The peak wind gusts during this final Indiana segment were 110 mph. |
